GDB will set bp at a function for RISC-V when step over this function call

Hi all,

I have a question about GDB for RISC-V. When step over a function call, GDB will set a bp at this function only for RISC-V. Do you think it is a bug? Thanks.

I use GDB 10.2. Below is test code. Line 9 is a function call of test0. When program stops at main.c:9, then next. From RSP log, we can see that gdb will set bp at the addr of test0 for RISC-V. For other arch, it will not.

1
2       int test0()
3       {
4           return 0;
5       }
6
7       int main (int argc, char * argv[])
8       {
9           test0();
10          return 0;
11      }



(gdb) disassemble test0
